Class ParetoTest

java.lang.Object
  negotiator.analysis.ParetoTest

public class ParetoTest
extends java.lang.Object

This class can be used to test if the implementation of the Pareto frontier algorithm in BidSpace returns the correct results on each domain. The efficient algorithm is compared against a simple bruteforce algorithm. No effort was made to optimize the bruteforce algorithm as I wanted to be sure that it is correct. Therefore, it is not advised to check domains with more than 200.000 bids.
